The Butterfly Lane

Butterfly, beautiful to watch, difficult to train. We SDK off every wall. We're most likely to smack hands with each other and those beside us. Fly's fun to sprint but no fun when the piano comes down What did you do in practice today? the breastroke lane The Middle Distance Lane The Backstroke Lane The Butterfly Lane The SDK Lane The Taper Lane The Distance Lane The IM Lane The Sprint Free Lane The Pool Deck

  • Another Masters swimmer who trains at the same gym I do told me that he doesn't like swimming fly there because the lanes are narrow and he can hit both of his hands on lanelines at the same time. Although the lanes are indeed narrow, hitting both hands on lanelines is not a problem that ever even would have occurred to me. MJ: It's going great, I've already gotten 20 inches taller! Wait... scratch that, I was standing on a table... subtract the difference... I'm 10 inches shorter??? There's gotta be a silver lining here. If I shave down for every meet, I can enter as 12&U! :banana:
